As this partnered pair
Of red finches in my yard
The humble one and the proud one
Pecking away and bouncing
On this cold morning
To be blithe and beautiful
As I am but without all
The weight and forethought
To wear my red feathers bravely
And my brown feathers calmly
To have solved the problem of twoness
By being both and neither
Nowhere and anywhere
Coming and going
